This is a picture of some of the equipment at the range today. This evening there were four porta potties, a fuel tank, semi-truck, three bulldozers, an ambulance, A CoE truck, the list goes on an one. I hope it is gone shortly.......... We need rain.

So 259 you going to show up at the Texas Nationals? Or just in CO...saw the web page that the range was closed due to fire trucks! A few years ago it was the flooding, what is Fabio doing to cause all the 'natural disasters' at this facility?

Greg says the fire is out and everything is back to normal. Supposed to be down in the 60's tomorrow night. Ahhhh cooler weather. We found Evelio, covered in jello.........don't know what we're gonna do with that boy. We had a bunch of guys retire last week. Crazy at work. I can't wait to shoot.......Why is Mary bringing a bikini? Inquiring minds want to know. Joseph want's to know if Coates is coming.

BF #7...no Coates is not coming. He needs to make money. I do not think I even own a bikini, but I will have my swim suit with me as there is a hot tub in Golden (and the Swiss are a little funny about birthday suits in the hot tub), and needless to say after a 14+ hour day on the mesa top a hot tub feels good.

Now I spoke with jjp and he will be sleeping in Joe's room, so he says, just to make sure no one covers him in jello.

Jello shooters?!?! LOL Whole new meaning to that phrase. Been trying to call you flying daddy. Always goes straight to voicemail when I call. I believe the jello has messed up your link to actual conversations with the outside world. I finally left you a message. I'm going to be driving down. I will be staying here and there I believe. Can't come to Texas without visiting relatives.

We will have close to 15 rifles in the car with us is there any chance someone has a 4500 PSI tank a couple of us could use to fill for the match so we can leave a tank at home? We just need a foster quick fitting hose end to connect to. Oh and I didn't register ahead of time will you be accepting walk ups? lol Just downloaded the entry form and see 60 shot matches cool :)

Going to be a long 4 day work week waiting to go!

BH they have all the toys. The boys from LA and TX don't play, they have whole stables of air rifles. It's like porn that you can touch. =))

I actually just got done shooting a 19/40 with my TX200 right now. Not bad for a completely new gun, and 1 month after shoulder surgery. Also, the scope I was using had cross hairs and no DOT!!!I can only shoot the TQ14 paper silhouette matches in my backyard as I only have about 20-30yards of depth in my backyard, but the animals get smaller just like they would if you had them at the actual distances. Best training technique out there for a guy stuck in the city.

Hammy,
I had no idea you were coming! Great news. I guess you're in mourning because the CMP ran out of Kimber 82G's. :D

Dee, there is no filling station available, unless you're sucking off someone else's tank. I need to get mine filled as well as there are at least 6 using my tank.

If you haven't booked a room:
Omni

Reference Texas State Rifles Association

thanks!!!
